Bogart Is In Heaven: 2001 - 2010


Bogart died April 14, 2010, around noon Manila time.
He was not sick and he died peacefully in his house.

His brother Sweepy will continue to post all of Bogart's stories and pictures which I sadly failed to update every week. It seemed coincidental that just two weeks ago I started moving all comments for Bogart and his father Sumo to Sweepy's blog where it will remain.

I thank you all for making Bogart a part of your life.
Someday when our mourning has passed
we will look back with less tears
and be comforted by all your friendships . . .


Lui,
Bogart's Keeper and Friend

I have posted about it here and here.

Today's Flowers


These are some of the flowers in our house Heaven.


I keep watch over them.

I sniff them not for their scent but for their stories.

These flowers have great stories.
They came from different places
before they lived in Heaven.


In Heaven they came to know our scents too.
These flowers like my scent and I like theirs too.
They smell like they lived for a long time.
They bloom, fade and repeat the same for so long.

The flowers love my brother Sweepy too.

Sweepy is now moderating all comments from our blogs.
So if you want to comment on my post, please leave it at Sweepy's blog.

And if you want to see and sniff flower stories go to TodaysFlowers.

MrBirdsky, the great planter


This is one of our plants in our house Heaven.


But last week, I saw this:



If you look closer, you will see one of our daily visitors MrBirdsky.



And this is what MrBirdsky did to the plant:



MrBirdsky dropped seeds everywhere in Heaven and sometimes, what he drops in Heaven becomes a very pleasant surprise!
